In August of each year, the normally minimalistic Finnish and Swedish households experience an eruption of colour – especially red shades – in time for the much-anticipated crayfish season. When hosting a crayfish party, there are a few things to keep in mind: there is simply no such thing as too much decorations – or too many napkins.

For this short period of time, Scandinavians truly live in the mindset that ‘more is more’: more schnapps, more mess (there's no other way to eat it), and more colour.

Embrace the tradition and invest in pieces to truly elevate your own crayfish party tablescape, with 14 hand-picked selections from Vogue Scandinavia below:
